Hi!
Today I launched host at my job. When I tried to mount bcachefs I got:
bcache: bch_open_as_blockdevs() register_cache_set err Bad checksum

This is simple, not tieres fs. I don't have idea what to do next to help
debug this. Data on this fs are completely unimportant.
The superblock checksum is bad (I'm going to improve that error message)... what
in the heck...

Anything remotely unusual about the machine or how you were using it?

Existing filesystem, right? Not freshly formatted?

The only thing I can really think of is there was a torn write while writing the
superblock - if the power failed or the VM was killed partway through writing
the superblock, that would cause it. Unfortunately we don't have backup
superblocks yet... I suppose I should really get on that...
